Zhang Yuan accompanied Wei Qing to the school field to check and found that the drill at this time was very simple.

Those who hold guns, spears, and halberds are constantly stabbed, and those who hold knives have a few more movements, but there is nothing surprising about it.

After watching it for a while, Zhang Yuan was not interested, but he didn't say much to ask Wei Qing to change the existing way of acting.

It is very difficult to train all the more than 2,000 people to become masters, and it is also necessary to be concise in order to form an army.

If you're not careful, you can lose your life on the battlefield, and simple moves can often save more time to prepare for the unexpected.

And these moves are not only simple, but also really effective.

"General, has Your Majesty recently built a large number of horseshoes and stirrups?

If there is, we can first win a batch of them and replace them all, so that the soldiers can get used to the cavalry fighting style in advance. ”

Zhang Yuan thought about it, and still needed to remind Wei Qing, after all, the main combat objects of the Qimen Army in the future were basically all Hun cavalry, and the combat method of training foot soldiers here was quite a waste of time.

"Changshi is not satisfied with the current way of acting?"

Zhang Yuan nodded.

"How many warhorses are there in the army now? If there is enough, we can choose a plain area where we can practice the cavalry fighting style.

Horseback slashing is the best way to deal with the Huns, and foot soldiers have a natural disadvantage against cavalry. ”

Wei Qing immediately smiled bitterly, obviously the situation was not as optimistic as Zhang Yuan imagined.

"The Qimen army is now eight hundred war horses, which is far from meeting the requirements mentioned by Changshi.

Horse riding exercises are bound to wear out the horses, and we can't afford to lose them, even if there will be horseshoes, but that doesn't mean that the horses won't be lost.

And I estimate that until we set out on the expedition, we will only have these 800 horses. ”

"Will it make Your Majesty and the Central Military Government unhappy if we collect horses in various places at our own expense?"

Zhang Yuan still had the last glimmer of hope, so he asked Wei Qing like this.

Thinking of that, Wei Qing still shook his head.

"If Changshi has a way to buy a horse that can be used in battle, His Majesty will not only not let you pay for it, but will also reward you.

None of the horses that can be bought can be used as war horses, which means that almost all the horses in the Han Dynasty that meet the standards of war horses are collected by His Majesty into the army. ”

Now it seems that before the defeat of the Xiongnu, the Han Dynasty has never been able to change the status quo of the lack of horses.

"I will ask the craftsmen at home to open the furnace and create a batch of stainless steel horseshoe that is enough for our own use.

Then divide the sergeant of the period gate into two, one part is cavalry and the other is infantry.

The cavalry was led by the general you to charge and kill the enemy, and the infantry was led by Gongsun Ao to defend and besiege the Xiongnu. ”

Wei Qing's face showed joy at this time, and he patted Zhang Yuan's shoulder heavily.

"So very good, so very good!"

"General, can we give priority to the second song with war horses?"

A voice came out next to Leng Buding, Zhang Yuanweiqing looked back, only to find that it was Xue Ren.

"This matter will naturally be weighed by General Ben and Changshi, so you don't need to say much."

Zhang Yuan waved his hand to stop Wei Qing from continuing to speak to Xue Ren, and he showed a smile on Xue Ren.

"My original intention was to give priority to the first song to equip all the parts with war horses, and then fill the gaps with the rest of the songs, which is impartial.

But what you said is also good, if all the cavalry were composed of two pieces, it would be much easier to command.

You've been listening to it for so long, and you know that there are only 800 horses in the army, and after making up the first song, there are only 300 left.

Give you three hundred horses for the second song, and what about the other two hundred? ”

The smile on Zhang Yuan's face became brighter and brighter because of the doubts on Xue Ren's face.

"But Changshi, now we only have four hundred and fifty people in a song, isn't there only a shortage of a hundred?"

Zhang Yuan's face suddenly turned cold, and he patted Xue Ren's head.

"Are you stupid? Won't the vacant number of troops be filled in the future? ”

In the past few days, Zhang Yuan's method of dealing with Xue Ren was completely to slap and then give a sweet date to eat, and Xue Ren was stunned for a moment.

"Yes, yes, the last will be stupid.

Does Changshi have the idea of replenishing these two hundred war horses? ”

Hearing Xue Ren mention it himself, a wicked smile appeared on Zhang Yuan's face again.

"You are the prince of the Marquis of Guangping, it is not difficult to use the resources of the Marquis of Guangping to get two hundred war horses, right?

It is estimated that there are more than two hundred war horses in the Marquis of Guangping's mansion, right? ”

These Hou Ye have dozens to hundreds of generals in the Chang'an territory, and there are even Hou soldiers in the Hou Kingdom.

Two hundred horses can still be obtained.

"Changshi, are you going to make up for this vacancy myself?

I said earlier, the generals in the house will be under the control of my eldest brother, and I will go back to the house to transfer two hundred war horses. ”

Xue Ren was also an anxious person, otherwise he wouldn't have collided with Wei Qing so directly, and left the barracks after saying this.

"Zhang Changshi, your trick is really high."

Wei Qing was stunned, Zhang Yuan could come up with such a trick.

"The general has an overreputation, and the general can find all the noble sons and daughters in the army, but all the generals in the family.

Coercion and temptation one by one, you can get as many war horses as you can.

Xue Ren sent out two hundred war horses so easily, and the rest of the princes of the Hou Mansion would not be too far behind.

We're not greedy, just get another 500 horses. ”

Wei Qing also revealed the sinister smile on Zhang Yuan's face just now.

"Tut-tut, that's not greedy."

Looking at Wei Qing's distant figure, Zhang Yuan almost felt that he had led this famous general astray.

Bad tricks and bad moves emerge one after another, and Wei Qing dares to use his heart and eye on Liu Che.

I'm afraid that the blackening will not be too far.

As soon as Wei Qing walked for a while, a soldier rushed to Zhang Yuan and said respectfully.

"Changshi, the military Sima Gongsun Ao has arrived, please go over with the general."

Zhang Yuan glanced at Wei Qing who was far away, and felt that it was more important to ask for a war horse, so he said to the soldier in front of him.

"The general has important things to do, so I'll go alone."

"Whoa."

Gongsun Ao had never had his own camp account, and now he was waiting in Wei Qing's camp account as soon as he came, and Zhang Yuan followed the soldiers all the way.

He thought that Gongsun Ao was not waiting in the account, and greeted Zhang Yuan from afar.

After Zhang Yuan responded, he asked the soldier.

"Why don't you invite General Sima in?"

The soldier lowered his head and explained to Zhang Yuan.

"Long history, this is the general's Chinese army tent, without the general's order, no one can put it in."

Thinking that this was probably one of the military regulations, Zhang Yuan figured it out.

Almost all the secrets in the army are in Wei Qing's big tent, and it is indeed a bit bad to let people in without passing them through
